Staff skill enhancement and training

Staff training is an integral part of Moral Home’s operation. All clinical staff that forms the core of nursing home operation would be required to undergo regular Clinical Domains trainings, certifications and updates in line with MOH Enhanced Nursing Home Standards (ENHS).  These trainings include Infection Control, Hand Hygiene /Donning/Doffing PPE, Proper Skin Care for residents, Dignity of Care, and Proper Transferring technique. Other trainings, certifications and seminars such as CPR/AED, Food Safety and Hygiene, and Covid Incident Management may also involve staff from business office, kitchen and logistics. Here at Moral home, we strive to maintain a high level of readiness to meet current requirement and every new challenge.
